Applieation led June 18, 1921. Serial No. 478,476.

To all whom tmc/,y concern Be it known that I, NELLIE KEARNEY, a citizenof the United States of America, residing at Holyoke, in the county ofHampden and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain new anduseful Improvements in Dolls. of which the following or construct dollsso as to form the same with one or more faces, each having its bodydifferently clothed to correspond with the appearance of the face.

The present invention comprises the usual doll construction having thepivotally connected legs and arms, and the fixed body and head portions;but with the additional features of a movable hat for hiding or coveringone face and disclosing another, whereby by changing the position of thehat the appearance of the doll as 'a whole may be changed. The pivotedlegs are also adapted to be turned so as to correspond with the positionof the exposed face.

Referring to the drawings:

Fig. l shows the doll with the hat in one position, disclosing the face,arms, legs, and a suitable dress of a doll which represents a whiteperson.

Fig. 2 is the reverse side of F ig. l, showing the hat moved so as tocover the face shown in Fig. l, and disclosing suitable features torepresent a colored person.

Fig. 3 is a side elevation of Fig. 2, illustrating the hat covering thewhite face and showing how each half of the body and arms ofthe doll arecovered to correspond with the face. v

Fig. l is a detail view of the jointed structure for the legs, wherebythe feet may be turned as shown in dotted and full line positions.

Referring to the drawings in` detail: l represents the side of the dollthat is white,

and 2 the side ofthe doll that is colored,

both having the characteristic features painted, or otherwise placed onthe material covering each half of the doll.y The cap or hat isindicated at 8, and is provided with l bows a and l-on the oppositesides thereof which serve to pivotally secure -the hat to the headportion at the points 6. The foot portions 7 and 8 are pivotallyconnected at the knee portion, as indicated at 9,'whereby the feet maybe turned `in oppositedirections, as indicatedin Fig. il, depending onthe. position of the hat, so that the appearance of the doll'may beuniform.y These leg and feet' members are suitably covered to representstockings and shoes. The arms l() of the doll may be pivot-allyconnected'to n the shoulder part,-as indicated by the dot'd line il inFig. l. l v

It isto be understood that the appearancel of the doll as shownis notlimited g, as any suitable characters maybe represented on the oppositesides and faces of the doll, those shown being merely illustrative. Theappearance of the dress as shown is also illustrative. If desiredtheentire dress may be of-uniform appearance and color, or it may differgreatly in style and appearance on both sides. lVhat I claim is: l

l. As an articleof manufacture, a doll having its opposite sides madedifferent in appearance to represent different races, a movable cap orthe like attached to the head to cover either. one of the faces, and legpore tions, pivotally connected together whereby the feet and cap may beplaced in corre-` sponding rclationto the rest of the article, asdesired.

2. As an article of manufacture, la doll" having the body and head partformed as one piece, a dress for the body part, the headl having itsopposite sides decorated to repre-l sent different races, the appearanceof the body so as to be turned to correspond with l the position of thehat, as described.
